“Other than DQ and Ryan's, I don't have any memories of soft-serve in Charleston. But the transplants rave about the places back where they're from, and it's hard not to feel like I missed out on something truly wonderful. Then Turbo Cone shows up and instantly fills that anemoia with their catchy name, retro branding and simple options. The entire experience is a vibe, and it's hard not to fall in love. My favorite, oddly enough, is just the swirl (chocolate and vanilla) in a waffle cone. The flavor and texture make it; it's nothing fancy or decadent, but it's such a treat. Our son dips his in something different every time, and loves that as much as I love my swirl cone. They've got something for everyone. Thanks to the owners for sharing a piece of their childhood with us. I get the soft-serve thing now, and I'm grateful I'm able to make similar childhood memories with our son.“

“My favorite when visiting Charleston! Lots of different flavors and a fun experience while you walk through the historic city. Sales person Damian explained all the different products very well. They also have ice cream for kids and give free water to homeless people! A great example of a successful veteran owned business.“

Community Perk Coffee Shops •
205 Meeting St, Charleston

“Solid coffee at a reasonable price which was surprising given it is located in Charleston Place. The iced latte was smooth and creamy and very enjoyable. My wife enjoyed the iced americano which I noticed they topped off with bottled Fiji water (wow). Service can be a bit slow but it's to be expected when your coffee is well made.“

Costco Food Court Fast Food • $$
3050 Ashley Town Center Dr, Charleston

“Stopped by this Costco while in the area just to stock up on alcohol for the holidays. Having the ABC store separate from the main store made it super quick and easy to pick up a bunch of libations at a reduced price. Great selection and we have found the Kirkland brand liquors of great quality. The spiced rum is surprisingly delicious and a great deal.“

He was very kind and patient- he offered to give me a small sample of every flavor and I was blown away! It's not often you see someone in the service industry take time out of their day to be so kind.This ice cream is incredible- the flavors are bright with a hint of alcohol, perfectly balanced.Thank you for your time today Blake- I will be a lifelong customer. Currently going to lowes foods to buy every pint!“

“I was Charleston for a week unfortunately very ill for several of days, Peace Pie was outside my hotel and seemed like the best option for my ravaged stomach. I literally lived on them for three days and tried probably half the options. All of them were amazing, though the blueberry cobbler was the stand out, absolutely fantastic. I am so sad that I live 7 states away.“

“We came in shortly after opening so we were able to get in and out. The service was quick and despite the three of us coming in being indecisive. I was easily distracted with the Taylor Swift bop playing overhead. I knew I'd like this place simply from the music playing. For me, I knew it would come down to the strawberry and the lemon sorbet. I felt like something sweet over a touch of sour would be better option on this Saturday morning. The strawberry sorbeto did NOT disappoint! It was SO good and the perfect touch after the walk we just went on downtown. The cafe had outdoor seating and a few bar stools inside. There was a map to the right when you first walked in that you could add a pushpin to show where you are from. However, the US was pretty much represented so I felt like we had that covered. Anyway, I don't know how I've lived in Charleston my whole life and walked down Vendue so many times, but never checked out this cafe. If you're craving something cold and sweet, definitely pop in here for a quick treat!“
